Lavandula 'Avonview' (Lavender)

Lavandula 'Avonview' (Lavender) Details

“Avonview” is a variety of Lavender that carries masses of deep purple flowers from spring through autumn. The foliage is grey-blue and complements the darker flowers nicely. Both the flowers and foliage produce a lovely aroma when cut. This evergreen shrub typically grows to 60 cm tall and the same wide, performing best when planted on a well-drained site in full sun. It is a hardy plant that will tolerate dry conditions but does require protection from heavy frosts when young. This Lavender is commonly used in cottage gardens, included in a mixed planting, used in borders, trimmed into a low hedge, planted around outdoor living areas, or grown in a container. For hedging space plants 30 cm apart. A mass planting gives a truly dramatic display with this variety.
